Julie Martine Thibaud (born 20 April 1998) is a French professional footballer who plays as a defender for Women's Super League club Leicester City and the France national team.
Career
Thibaud started playing football at a tiny club called AS Échiré Saint-Gelais in Saint-Gelais, but she had to move aged 15, as her club did not have any women's team and she had been playing with the boys until then. She then joined ASJ Soyaux, before going to the FC Girondins de Bordeaux in 2017.
Thibaud was called up to the France national team for the first time by Corinne Diacre on 10 September 2020.
On 31 August 2023, Thibaud signed for Women's Super League side Leicester City on a two-year deal.
